ADC10/12

Target Category: MSP430

Description: The MSP430 comes with either an ADC 10- or 12-bit precision module. The ADC10/12 block acquires analog data from an MSP430 and converts it into digital data. When you insert an ADC10/12 block into your diagram, it automatically assumes either 10- or 12-bit precision based on the CPU subtype you selected in the dialog for MSP430 Config.

Channel: Indicates a channel number.

Vref: Indicates the reference voltage for the unit. If you have selected a CPU subtype with ADC 10-bit precision on the MSP430, the Vref text box is dimmed.
